About the entrepreneur

Lucy runs a salon in her community in Mathare Valley. Her husband works in a bakery where he makes cakes. Lucy loves her job; however, she says her greatest difficulty is raising enough money to provide for her family. She understands the importance of education and is determined to keep her daughter in school. She hopes that, by expanding her business, she will be able to have enough money to pay for school fees.

About the loan

One of Lucy's business goals is to grow her business until it can generate enough income to help pay for her daughter's schooling. She has applied for a loan from Missions of Hope in order to improve and expand her current business. She feels confident that this loan will enable her to make the necessary improvements to her salon that will bring in more customers.
